Chaminda Vaas IPL profile: Sri Lanka’s swing master made every over count during his three-season spell with Sunrisers Hyderabad from 2008 to 2010. Across 13 bowling innings the left-armer snapped 18 wickets at a brisk strike-rate of 15.67 balls per scalp, conceding only 7.55 runs an over. His standout spell came when he rocked the top order with 3 for 21, the only three-wicket haul of his IPL career. Vaas bowled 47 tight overs, gave away 355 runs and never let batters settle, proving why experience trumps age in T20 cricket. When called upon with the bat, Vaas delivered handy cameos. In 11 knocks he tallied 81 runs from 73 balls, striking at 110 and clearing the ropes three times while finding the fence twice. His highest score of 20 not out showcased the calm of a 300-ODI veteran. Though centuries and fifties eluded him, the pinch-hitting left-hander ensured late-order momentum that twice turned close games SRH’s way. From 2008 to 2010, Chaminda Vaas remained the quiet general of Sunrisers Hyderabad, combining frugal new-ball bursts and fearless lower-order swings to give the franchise its early identity.
